Installation and Upgrades / initial configuration fails because of package dependancy [solved]

dear sirs/madams

i messed up the installation of my zentyal test (4.1 community edition, zentyal-4.1-development-amd64.iso) and decided to reinstall and start from scratch again.
now i get a problem when it is time to run the initial configuration.

the message says (translated from my native language):
the following packets have dependencies that are not fulfilled:
zentyal-openchange: depending on zentyal-common (>=4.1.1) but 4.1.0.29 is to be installed

i have tried apt-get manually (both on openchange and common packages)
i have done apt-get update and upgrade

i thought something was wrong with the iso file so i downloaded it again. still the same result

i have tried installing it without allowing it to connect to the internet since it might pull packages directly from the internet.
still the same result

i am not familiar with how apt-get does dependencies, but to me it looks like zentyal-openchange requires zentyal-common to be above a specific revision but insists on installing an older version instead

the strange thing is that i installed it without any issues a week ago on the same hyper-v host, same network, same iso file without any problems

Any suggestions from the good people out there?
